Come winter, our skin can get drier than a Diablo Cody script—but unlike the screenwriter’s sense of humor, there’s nothing very funny about it. Luckily, the skincare wizards at ARCONA have our backs (or rather, our faces). This featherlight gel works three ways to keep your skin in high spirits: It moisturizes, neutralizes free radicals, and keeps pores clear—leaving you glowing and dewy-faced through the colder months and beyond. Bonus: It’s great for all skin types!
Please bring this fantastic moisturizer back to Birchbox!
My sensitive over 40 skin really loves this product. The texture is nice and light and packs a ton of moisture barrier protection alone or under serums.
Perfection and truly magical moisturizer. No SPF makes it very desirable choice for night and day with or without SPF add on.
The sample of the product came in a tube with a screw on cap, which was great for taking to the gym. The full-size product has a pop-off cap and a pump top which popped off and pumped inside my gym bag causing me to lose a bit of the product on my gym clothes :-( It would be nice if there were a screw on cap for the non-sample size.
Otherwise, it makes my skin feel great - especially after a shower and before putting on moisturizer or BB. Has a slight fragrance, to it, but I like it and it fades quickly.
My skin is picky when it comes to facial moisturizers. The difference I felt with the Arcona Magic White Ice is that it went much farther than just hydrating my skin at the surface - it seeped under my skin and kept my skin feeling soft and dewy all day without clogging my pores. And after a long day of working, running around the city and hitting the gym, it's the perfect gel to put on just before bed at night - light and airy. My skin was actually craving it again each night and morning!
5I'm a loyal fan of (another brand) of moisturizer, LOYAL. But this one knocked me off my rocker... and it's a gel! I have combination skin bordering on the oily side, yet sensitive to the dry climate I live in. I need moisture on my skin but nothing too heavy or filled with 'stuff' - the less the ingredients the better. I've dismissed gels in the past because they're sticky, but this one leaves skin soft to the touch. This is light weight and dries quickly. I ordered a full bottle after my birchbox sample ran out - it's the first divergence from my normal moisturizer in 10years!
